Agreement will provide new contactless payment options for ANZ customers

Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (ANZ) and Fit Pay, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of NXT-ID, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXTD), today announced an agreement to extend contactless payment capabilities to a range of new devices. The agreement enables ANZ cardholders to make secure contactless payments at NFC-enabled point-of-sale locations directly from Internet of Things (IoT) and wearable devices that are integrated with the FitPay[TM] payment platform.

"We are very pleased to be working with one of Australia's leading banks to help drive the adoption of new contactless payment technology," said Michael Orlando, COO of NXT-ID and President of Fit Pay, Inc. "Australians have embraced the convenience of tap and go payments. This agreement allows them to enjoy that same frictionless payment experience on a wider variety of devices."

Under the agreement, ANZ will participate in FitPay's Token Requester Program, which enables cardholders to securely add their payment credentials to devices that are integrated with FitPay's contactless payment platform. The platform uses tokenization, a payment security technology that replaces cardholders' account information with a unique digital identifier (a "token"), to transact highly secure contactless payments. It allows consumers to pay at near-field communication-enabled point-of-sale terminals with a simple tap.

The collaboration with ANZ includes ensuring that the devices meet ANZ's technical, usage, security, branding, and consumer experience requirements. Manufacturers of 15 IoT and wearable devices are currently integrating with the FitPay Payment Platform[TM]. Product announcements from the manufacturers of these devices are anticipated in throughout the next year.

Australia leads the world in the adoption of contactless payments, with 4 in 5 consumers making at least one contactless payment a week.

ANZ is one of the five largest listed companies in Australia and the number one bank in New Zealand. It operates in more than 34 markets across Australia, New Zealand, Asia, Pacific, Europe, America and the Middle East including a technology and operations center in Bengaluru, India.
